    It does when it comes to homosexual representation. Then again you're not the only gay gamer

    what % of people that play the game actually are interested in the lore of tf2? or just play the game to shoot eachother?

    I'm so glad you are not responsible for the story telling in any of the video games that I play. My god what a train wreck that would be.

    Some people enjoy those shitty videos steam put out. Some people enjoy the warcraft lore instead of just gameplay it's personal preference and not really your place to tell others how to feel

    It is part of there backround right?
    Not sure why you can't realize this but sexuality is kind of a big part of people's lives. Some might say more important than ice cream.

    No, it doesn't by default. It doesn't matter if Reaper wants to stick his thing into women, men or robots for all I care. It is a game. You'd have to turn the "gay" to eleven for it to even be noticeable (for example). If that happens, people will complain about stereotypes.
    Honestly it's a Catch 22.

    I don't know about you but I know quite a few colleagues who are gay. Some I didn't even know about for years. That's how not-obvious it is for most of those guys and girls. Some of them are quite awesome people, some of them are kinda odd but them being gay is not something anyone cares. They care how they do their job and how funny they are when we have a get-together.

    So IF you want to throw in a gay character don't just assume only because he/she is gay, that it adds anything to him/her by default. If they do like a social commentary about it - sure, why not. But just saying "oh, btw Reaper likes to fuck X" doesn't add anything.

    Now queue the people calling me a homophobe because I think that way. Meanwhile I have quite a few gay friends I hang out with on a regular basis. :P

    I'm worried you'll fuck up all of the developed characters with your obviously skewed personal bias and ruin it for the rest of us.

    The warcraft lore is interesting, but WoW is not overwatch right? but shooters literally need zero lore to be successful and no one has mention WoW until you RIGHT now...

    literally apples and oranges.

    Blizzard has a thing for having lore in their games. I doubt overwatch will be different

    I think you misunderstood again. Let me be more clear:

    I don't care if a character is gay or straight. I think it's rarely relevant to a video games story what sexuality anyone wants the character to be. I can't imagine, in any of Blizzards game, that specific detail would ever push the story along...

    Again, the biased part. You're very clearly just pushing your own agenda.

    Because many characters have a level of sexuality, I think your issue is that it will dominate their character and not just be a side note.

    Varian is straight. Jaina and thrall are straight. Why is hard to imagine someone being gay?

    I doubt they'd shove it in your face or make it the most prevalent characteristic. It'll probably be like Dumbledore being gay. Doesn't really come up in story, but it's just a part of his character.

    Anyway i hope blizzard ruins your gaming experience by having characters that are gay.

    Varian and Jaina being straight or not has never furthered the story of World of Warcraft though...

    Do people really care about a character's sexual orientation in a first person shooter?

    Oh, wait, Tumblr generation. Never mind.

    I don't care if people are gay lol, it doesn't bother me but it just seems random to throw it in THIS GAME. like why does overwatch need to worry about anything so stupid be it straight, gay, tran, pan, demi, etc.

    If it was a game that added a level of depth to the story like WoW or any other game WHY THE FUCK NOT, it just seems so weird in this game to care about something so irrelevant that adds no depth.
